Disambiguation link notification for August 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Michael Grunwald, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Republican Party (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi Christopher, just a courtesy note to say I have mentioned you in an ANI discussion related to the labiaplasty article. Regards, Andreas JN466 05:59, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

IQRA Promotions

Hello, thought I'd let you know I de-PRODded IQRA Promotions, because it has a couple of notable artists on the roster and therefore its deletion may not be uncontroversial. However, I agree it is probably a non-notable label/organization, but would like to see the article go through AfD just in case someone with more familiarity has sources (I couldn't find any in a more-than-cursory but less-than-exhaustive search.) If you want to nominate go ahead, otherwise I will. All the best, 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 16:45, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I've nominated it for deletion now. Christopher Connor (talk) 17:31, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

for the personal attack here, touched a nerve have I? YousufMiah (talk) 17:00, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No personal attack, just a statement of fact that you don't know what you're doing. Christopher Connor (talk) 22:57, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"You have no understanding of the deletion criteria. You shouldn't be getting involved in anything to do with deletion here." Seems like a personal attack to me. Also you clearly don't understand the definition of fact as well as

WP:personal attack, as the statement is clearly opinion not fact. YousufMiah (talk) 23:30, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply

In what way does putting speedy tags on two articles with multiple reliable sources show that you do understand the deletion criteria and hence show my assertion isn't fact? Christopher Connor (talk) 20:01, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Right, so the statement "You shouldn't be getting involved in anything to do with deletion here", is a fact is it? I really hope you're not an English teacher or a lawyer because you would really suck at both if you were. 21:16, 2 November 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by YousufMiah (talk • contribs)

The fact here, as I've already explained, is that you don't understand the deletion criteria, as evidenced by your attempts to speedy and PROD two well-sourced articles (in response to me nominating for deletion an article you wanted to keep but which was found to be non-notable). Given this, any sensible person would come to the conclusion that you shouldn't get allowed with anything to do with deletion. Christopher Connor (talk) 18:31, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

After the various prior concerns that have been raised concerning your editing, I am dismayed that you have created another article about a term containing a snide reference to Jewish people. To be fair, the article itself (putting aside the notability issue) does not itself reflect prejudice on the part of yourself as the author (as opposed to on the part of those who coined or used the soccer term). Nonetheless, I think it would be to everyone's advantage if you didn't continue to focus your edits on this sort of thing. Newyorkbrad (talk) 21:52, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My editing is fine, that article is fine, so I don't see what your point is. You might be offended by it, but that's not my problem. Your assertion that I'm "focusing" on this area is also just wrong, but I doubt you care. Christopher Connor (talk) 22:25, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Christopher. If the above concern had been expressed by one of the numerous throwaway accounts that have targeted you, I would be tempted to agree with you. However, Newyorkbrad is one of the more thoughtful of Wikipedia's arbitration committee (it's an elected position, fwiw, there's a new election going on at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2013), so in this instance I don't think it's helpful for you to dismiss his comment in this way.

You may need to look at accepting that it's a good idea to back off from creating or promoting or being involved in such articles for a while. The Wikipedia community as a whole seems to be rather more negative about them that it used to be. Brad may have been suggesting ways for you to avoid the attentions of that self-described "Torches and pitchforks" mentality. --

Everybody sensible here knows that ArbCom is a joke filled with self-serving power mongers. They're the wiki equivalents of the likes of David Cameron, Tony Blair, Michael Gove, and Nick Clegg, so being a member of it isn't going to make me automatically respect them. It'll more likely have the opposite effect. No doubt Newyorkbrad's a powerful wiki-individual and he wants to use that clout to get rid of me. In any case, it's unlikely I'll stumble across any more material any time soon to make an article of the type that so bothers righteous individuals here.

Hello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.

For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page or my user page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done.

I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey before 8 August 2021.

Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.

Thanks so much,

Sarah Sanbar
